Haunted Courses?

Seen this on another forum, I personally don't know any haunted courses, do you?

Quote:
Braemar Golf Course in the Twin Cities area is said to be haunted by the spirit of a man who died shortly after the woods he was living in were cleared to make way for the course. Balls are said to suddenly go off line, putts to pop out of the cup after falling in. Mysterious.

I've heard of a course in British Columbia that's haunted by the ghost of a 1936 murder victim, Doris Gravlin. Seems Mr Gravlin strangled her, and now she assumes various forms near the 7th fairway of the Victoria Golf Course. Very troubling.

Parkland courses often have deep, dark woods. Links courses have lonely stretches of beach by the brooding sea. Heathland courses have their fabled moors. All of these settings have been associated with hauntings.

My question for you: Do you have a golf-course ghost story? Perhaps you were playing at twilight. You were playing alone. Or so you thought....
